How might the term "cripple" be used in a physical context?

  1. A. To enhance physical ability

  2. B. To cause injury affecting mobility

  3. C. To provide support and aid

  4. D. To promote wellness

The correct answer is: B. To cause injury affecting mobility

In a physical context, the term "cripple" refers specifically to causing an injury that affects someone's mobility or physical capability. The word historically carries connotations of significant impairment, suggesting that the individual may experience difficulty in movement or perform activities of daily living. The focus here is on the detrimental impact on physical function, which aligns with the meaning of the term. The other options present alternative concepts that do not align with the connotation of "cripple." Enhancing physical ability or promoting wellness indicates a positive change, while providing support and aid implies assistance rather than an injury. Consequently, these alternatives do not accurately reflect the intended meaning of the term in the context provided.
